(122) إِذْ هَمَّت طَّآئِفَتَانِ مِنكُمْ أَن تَفْشَلاَ وَاللّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا وَعَلَى اللّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ
122. " When two parties of you had decided to flinch but Allah was the protector of them both (and helped them to change their thought); So, in Allah (alone) should the believers trust."
Commentary:
Two groups of Muslims by the names of ' Banu Salmah ' From 'Uss Tribe and ' Banu H¤arithah ' from Khazraj tribe decided to shirk to participate in fight. There are different reasons mentioned for the inactivity of these two groups. Some of them are as follows.
1. Their own fear, when they saw that the number of enemy was large.
2. They were inconvinient for that their attitude was not attended to and the troops did not shelter in the city in spite of the side of 'Uh¤ud mount.
3. Why did the Prophet (p.b.u.h.) not let the confederate Jews help them? And so on.
But, by His Mercy, the Lord protected those two groups from falling in the trap of the sin of return and escape from the battlefield and He kept them safe in His Mastership.
Explanations:
1. Those who are not under the mastership of Allah are inactive.
2. Allah does not leave the believers to themselves. He assists them in sensitive moments.
3. Allah is aware of our intentions and He informs His Prophet of the thoughts of people.
4. All those who go to fight, are not the same.
5. The only remedy of weakness is trust in Allah. This effective remedy is in the hands of the believers.
